IN      THE      DEPTHS     OF      MAY. 
                                          
                                
                                   
                                   
                                   
                                   
                                
                                          
 IMAGINE IF  YOU  WILL, A  LUSH BLUEBERRY 
 SPRUCE  FOREST,  WITH  ROLLING HILLS AND 
           KNEE-DEEP UNDERBRUSH.          
                                          
 THE  GROUND IS  SOFT. LEAVES IN  ALL  OF 
 THE SEVEN  STAGES  OF DECOMPOSITION  ARE 
   PACKED LOOSELY TOGETHER... SOMETIMES   
 THERE ARE  ROCKS. BIGGER  BOULDERS  PEEK 
            OUT OF THE HILLS.             
                                          
 THERE COULD BE, SOMEWHERE  IN THE DEPTHS 
 OF IT ALL, A CREVICE  FILLED WITH WATER. 
   BIRD CHERRIES AT THE EDGES, DIPPING    
 THEIR LONG FINGERS  BENEATH THE SURFACE. 
     WATER LILIES, MAYBE. THE WATER IS    
  YELLOW-GREEN WITH POLLEN, AND INSECTS   
     ARE SWARMING ABOVE THE SURFACE.      
                                          
        WATER STRIDERS, MOSQUITOS,        
         BACK FLIES, CRANE FLIES.         
                                          
                                
                                   
                                   
                                   
                                   
                                
                                          
 IN   THIS  CASE  WE  WOULD   USE   DEET, 
 OR DIETHYLTOLUAMIDE AS IT'S ALSO CALLED. 
                                          
 DEET  SHOULD  BE APPLIED  TO YOUR  SKIN. 
 YOU  SHOULD COVER ALL SKIN THAT IS TO BE 
 EXPOSED TO AIR. IT'S OK TO GET  SOME  IN 
 THE  EYES.  RUB UNTIL  IT  FEELS  RIGHT, 
 UNTIL THE  SKIN FEELS  GOOD. LET IT SOAK 
                    IN.                   
                                          
       YOU'VE NOW BECOME POISONOUS.
